About Amy

How do you think?

How do you make decisions—when you’re calm, and when you’re under pressure?

A lot of people can “make it work” by compensating: pushing harder, masking, or forcing themselves into systems that don’t fit. That can look fine from the outside… until stress hits. Then it gets exhausting, demoralizing, and confusing—because logic alone doesn’t restore capacity.

I’m interested in the version of your life where you’re operating closer to your natural state: your brain, your energy, your values, and your goals pointed in the same direction.

  1. Life’s a dance you learn as you go—sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow.
  2. Don’t worry about what you don’t know…
  3. and don’t forget the journey matters.


Who I work with

I work with divergent thinkers, especially Gifted adults and adults with ADHD.

Many of my clients are:

  • intense, curious, creative, fast-thinking
  • great in a crisis, inconsistent in “normal life”
  • full of ideas, with half-finished projects and too many open loops
  • tired of trying to “do it right” and ready to do it their way.⁠

⁠​

If you’ve been told to “just slow down,” “just be consistent,” or “try harder”—you’re probably not alone.


What I do (and what coaching feels like)

I offer 1:1 coaching and group coaching. In sessions, I:

  • listen like a real human (no performative pep talks, no unsolicited advice)
  • help you identify priorities and the real friction point underneath the stuckness
  • design practical supports—tools, scaffolds, systems, and accountability—that fit your brain
  • help you build follow-through and self-trust without losing your spark.⁠

⁠⁠


Coaching is practical and skills-oriented. It’s often most helpful when you’re saying:

“I understand why this matters… and I still can’t make it happen.”⁠

⁠​


My approach (how we make change more doable)

My work is a blend of two lenses:

Top-down: strategies, planning, priorities, systems

Bottom-up: capacity, energy, regulation, and what’s actually making action available (or not)

Most people already know some good strategies. The missing piece is usually:

Can your nervous system access the strategy on a normal Tuesday?

⁠​

When we build support that matches your real constraints—attention, time awareness, overwhelm thresholds, motivation patterns—life starts to feel less like coping and more like choice.⁠

⁠​

Who I am

I have a zest for life and a flexible outlook (which might have something to do with being ADHD myself). I love listening, thinking, and creating. Learning how we’re wired—and helping other people do the same—still feels like one of the coolest careers ever.

With all due respect: your ideal life probably doesn’t look like mine. That’s good. The goal isn’t a perfect system. The goal is a system that supports your version of meaningful.
